The best thing I can say about the book is it's somewhat interesting, and decently written. With that said, Holden is by far the most obnoxious character ever in any form of media. Nothing like reading about a whiny, privileged, slacker, teenager, complaining about how everyone is a phony, and talking about how lame he is.

I liked it very much. Well, maybe that's because when I read it I thought I could relate to Holden and his troubles sooo well.
Today I think this might have been a bit exeggerated but I still like the book nonetheless.
